Ruffa Gutierrez greets Yilmaz Bektas' daughter Ilknaz a happy birthday with adorable throwback photos
Ruffa Gutierrez just greeted ex-husband's daughter Ilknaz a happy birthday.
On Instagram, Ruffa shared throwback photos with her daughters Lorin and Venice together with, well, her step-daughter at that time Ilknaz.
"Happy 24th birthday, Nazo!" She greeted the celebrant, revealing the photos were taken some 17 years ago.
"I hope to finally see you this year. Please come and visit us anytime. Our home is your home too," Ruffa added.
She ended her note by wishing Ilknaz the "best day ever" and reminding her how much they love her.
Ruffa included her daughters Lorin and Venice as she signed off the letter as "Ruffa Abla," able meaning older sister in Turkish.
Her eldest Lorin left several affectionate comments including, "my favorites."
Last year, Lorin and Venice flew to Turkey and reunited with their father Yilmaz after 15 years.
During their visit, Ruffa's daughters got to hang out and bond with their half-sister Ilknaz, who on Instagram said their day together was "the happiest day of my life."
In the comments section, Ruffa reminded the girls to "have fun."
How nice to see the modern family is still at it, in touch and being loving and affectionate.
